(Kaseran Pillay, Krijay Govender, &
Leeanda Reddy)
Booking is now open
for Glued, the hilariously irreverent
comedy for the Playhouse Company’s festive season starring three of South
Africa’s best comedy talents: Krijay Govender, Leeanda Reddy and Kaseran
Pillay.
Coming to the Playhouse
this December for two performances only on December 22 and 23, Glued is sure to keep audiences glued to
every word these mirthful performers utter, and have audiences rolling in the
aisles. Sending up the screen-addicted generation with the team’s own style of
skit comedy, Glued covers everything
from soapies to news to reality shows, and even wildlife TV!
With previous hits
like Buckled and Queens of Comedy, it is clear that this team with their new
production Glued will provide
audiences with the perfect comedy treat for the festive season.
Leeanda Reddy is a
film, television and stage actress who has performed all over South Africa, as
well as internationally. She has received numerous accolades for her
performances and is a familiar face on South African screens for her role in
SABC 3's Isidingo. She also starred
as the female lead opposite Leon Schuster in South Africa's premier grossing
comedy movie Mr Bones 2. Even though Reddy
is an old hand at both the small and big screens, she remains more at home on
the theatre stage, especially in stage comedy. She is currently also working on
international projects, and is branching into the restaurant world.
Govender has been
voted by the media as the funniest woman in South Africa. She was described by
Sunday Times columnist Gwen Gill as one of the top three Master of Ceremonies
(MCs) in South Africa. In 2013, She participated in the Edinburgh Festival in
Scotland as both playwright and performer and played granny in the best-selling
film, Material. Govender is the winner
of four SAFTA awards for TV directing.
Pillay is a
comedian, stage and screen actor who started with Shakespeare and comic
sketches. He will be remembered as a presenter in Going Nowhere Slowly and was a popular figure in Survivor South Africa. He is best known
for his role as the nasty villain in the top grossing Mr Bones 2.
